Quotes by Germaine Tillion (?)

“Ces personnes [qui mentent gratuitement] sont, à vrai dire, beaucoup plus nombreuses qu’on ne le suppose généralement, et un domaine comme celui du monde concentrationnaire – bien fait, hélas, pour stimuler les imaginations sado-masochistes – leur a offert un champ d’action exceptionnel. Nous avons connu de nombreux tarés mentaux, mi-escrocs, mi-fous, exploitant une déportation imaginaire ; nous en avons connu d’autres – déportés authentiques – dont l’esprit malade s’est efforcé de dépasser encore les monstruosités qu’ils avaient vues ou dont on leur avait parlé et qui y sont parvenus. Il y a même eu des éditeurs pour imprimer certaines de ces élucubrations, et des compilations plus ou moins officielles pour les utiliser, mais éditeurs et compilateurs sont absolument inexcusables, car l’enquête la plus élémentaire leur aurait suffi pour éventer l’imposture.

(« Réflexions sur l’étude de la déportation », Revue d’histoire de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale, numéro spécial sur « Le Système concentrationnaire allemand (1940-1944) », juillet-septembre 1954, p. 18, note 2)”
